The Lost Record is a blog that shines a light on records that never made the move to digital (notably Spotify or Apple). At best these records have a Youtube fan upload.

This falls into the rare category of a downbeat record that both house DJs and beat fiends played in the early 90s, it crossed the musical boundaries when DJs would warm crowds and take them on journeys through genres. Heavy breaks and funk samples put together sublimely – it just oozes style! Zoom (a London label) licensed this record from a Swedish organisation founded in the mid 80s called Swemix (also known as Remixed Records) with Stonebridge (real name Sten Hallström) being one of the partners in the label. Swemix remixed club records for the DJs (without the megamix approach of DMC) and their story is really interesting if you follow DJ history, check it here. Stonebridge has moved on to commercial house music notoriety (including “that” Robin S – Show Me Love mix) and his remix list reads like a who’s who of pop. This slowdown gem doesn’t even feature in his discography so I can certainly confirm it is a LOST RECORD!

Is this a Lost Record: YES. Completely!
